In 2017, Apple CEO Tim Cook called for governments to launch a public information campaign to fight the scourge of "fake news," which he said was "killing people’s minds." Cook said this "big problem" necessitated a crackdown by the authorities and tech firms. @elonmusk
"It has to be ingrained in the schools, it has to be ingrained in the public… There has to be a massive campaign. We have to think through every demographic… All of us tech companies need to create some tools that help diminish the volume of fake news." - #TimCook @tim_cook
"It’s almost as if a new course is required for the modern kid… In some ways kids will be the easiest to educate. At least before a certain age, they are very much in listen and understand [mode], and they then push their parents to act." - Tim Cook #Indoctrination #Apple
